[QUOTE="theimpaler, post: 420330, member: 553024"] ohms law: in series, final resistance is sum of the resistances. ie. X+Y=Z in parallel, final resistance follows the formula (1/X) + (1/Y) = (1/Z) if you have a 2 dual 4 ohm subs your possible final resistances (as seen by a mono amp) could be 1, 1.6, 4, 10, or 16. you wanted 4 ohms and you could get this 2 ways: wiring each individual sub in parallel and then the 2 subs in series or wiring each individual sub in series and then the 2 subs in parallel [/QUOTE]
